Campground Reviews

Jul 03, 2023
We chose this KOA due to its proximity to the IL Railway Museum. It was satisfactory for a Holiday but lacked amenities like kiddie pool, concrete pads, paved streets of a Journey. Staff was extremely pleasant. Overall it was OK but not outstanding like the other KOAs we have stayed at

Although it rained throughout most of the weekend, the KOA was a lot of fun! My grandson had a blast! So happy that they had the flashlight candy hunt in the rain. My grandson would’ve been disappointed if it was canceled. We will be back.

So nice since it has been fixed up, new bathrooms, separate showers, nice little shop, friendly staff, great place for kids to play, love the new playground, jump pad, Gaga ball, love the mini golf. Our cabin was nice just wish there was an outside plug for cooking, and the mattresses were a big hard for my husband. Close to lots of kids places to visit. We loved our stay and would love to stay

The amount of traffic is insane! If cars aren't driving by your site, staff in a golf cart is every 2 minutes.If you are looking for a nice relaxing place this is not it! It's very noisy, no nature trails, or ponds and you are right on top of the site next to you. At one point there was a construction vehicle going back and forth with beeping for at least an hour to add to the chaos. Pool was cold

Staff was great & easy to order firewood with quick delivery. Bathrooms were always clean and our sites (30 & 31) were spacious with 4 larger tents and a large screen tent.

This is the nicest koa we have stayed at! This is on our top three list of the best koa campgrounds we have stayed at!

We stayed in the new rental trailer. It was on a lovely site that offered great shade and was near the swimming pool and bathhouse. The campground was quite full when we were there but was quiet, especially at night. The staff was very timely in responding to texts regarding questions or requests. The campground was clean and well maintained.

I have never stayed at a KOA that doesn't have full hookups at every site.

We decided to stay at the Chicago KOA so that we could visit our friends in Chicago along our way. The campground is well, set up and well-maintained, and they have a great system for entering and exiting. Even with a shortage of staff, there was absolutely no problem with anything. We felt very safe and secure and enjoyed our stay.

easy booking, friendly check-in, clean restrooms, sites a little close together, wondered if instead of having 3 parking places "down the road" if you'd separate the sites 64, 65, 66 with a parking spot in between each site-just a thought. Very much appreciated the handicap satellite restroom. Close to highway and visited Illinois Railroad Museum & Sycamore Race Track since they were so close.

Everyone is so polite and helpful. The park is clean and well-maintained.

Park is beautiful. We could tell much work and pride went into maintaining the Park. Very family oriented, which is great! Felt it was a bit pricey though.

It was fun and relaxing. Was hoping for better weather on Sunday to do mini golf and use the pool but there is always next time

What a wonderful place to stay. The place was clean, well laid out, and had many activities for kids. To top it off, the two visit. on site were so professional and down to earth. They made you feel like a friend stopping by for a visit.

Great campground. Nice people to deal with

The overall campground is very well maintained with nice areas for walking and kudos to the upgrades. Check-in was smooth and our pull thru site was nicely done with a fire pit, brick pad with a table, and swing toward the back of the property which offered some privacy. The pool looked well-maintained and the kid's area looked like a lot of fun if you're traveling with kids! Would stay again.

Beautiful campground, fun activities and amenities, clean facilities, and friendly and attentive staff. All around a great experience here time after time.

Very clean campground. Great service and staff! Unfortunately we did not stay for our second night paid. Due to campers partying until 3am across from our site, along with barking dogs, we hardly slept. When the all night party people had friends join next morning at site behind us, that confirmed we were not going to sleep again second night, so packed up and left even though we paid for 2 nights

Campground was super nice. The office stayed in touch through text for activities, information about incoming storm, offered place to stay (if needed).
Jun 26, 2023
Cleanest campground I've been to in a long time. Owners are great host, bathrooms are clean, play area was clean, pool was clean and the place was family and pet friendly. Definitely would come back.

I appreciate that you have so many activities for kids. My daughter had an amazing trip, even though we had to cut things short due to the weather.

Friendly, courteous, and helpful staff. Campgrounds and site well maintained. Train station is close to the campground. Best way to travel to downtown Chicago. Small store but well stocked.

Love rhe personal attention Sylvia and her staff provide. We love staying there!

Stayed one night with my 4 year old daughter who LOVED it for her first time camping. Great facility and super helpful staff. Excellent for children as they have great playground equipment and a fun jump pad inflatable. Nice no-frills pool. Go there!

We were looking forward to being able to swim after a very long drive. We had told our children that if they were good, we would go swimming when we got to the campsite. We arrived at 7:30 to be told that the pool closes at seven. All the other KOA campsites that we had been to across the nation closed their pools at 9. This campsite was nice but not as nice as all the other KOA where we have been

The campground is wonderful. Our site #92 was terrible. Could not use the sewer because **** doesn't flow uphill. The sewer pipe was so much higher than our camper that it would never empty our tanks. The site was not level either. We have a self leveling camper and it would never level, even with 3 tires off the ground.

Showers were tiny and moldy smellling and in disrepair. Restroom was clean
Jun 24, 2023
We arrived to find out that the “dog friendly” advertised fenced area was not just for our cabin. It was shared between two cabins and multiple dogs which is very dangerous and not at all what we had booked. Silvia in the office was absolutely rude and disrespectful and argued with us about us. She was also very rude to my 8 year old daughters when asking a simple question about the gems.

Clean comfortable

Infrastructure needs some support: entrance road is one-way only for larger rigs, roadways are dirt/dust, causing annoyance for those nearest the entrance area with large clouds of dust. Fortunately, we were in the rear area and had little traffic. Nice size sites. E/W/S all worked properly, laundry room was clean, even had an iron and ironing board! Enjoyed our stay!�

The weather was beautiful but hot during the day. I had some issues with my awning, so one of the staff helped me out so that I could deploy it. The site and grounds are clean and well kept and level. I have a small Travato 59G, so I pulled right in and parked with no issues. The restrooms are very clean and I loved the showers. I often decide to camp last minute and I usually find a spot.

Only there for one night but staff is very friendly and very helpful Campground is well kept and clean

The staff is very friendly and we were happy with our site, overall. It was level and we were on an end. It would have been preferable to not have grass being mowed next to us, and blowing around, at the dinner hour. Since the roads are not paved, more gravel would keep the dust down. For $55, cable would be appreciated. This is just constructive criticism as we were happy with our stay.

Very nice KOA. The staff is friendly and helpful. We had a severe thunderstorm warning and they kept us informed via text message. They really take care of their campers. Thank you!

This campground is very clean and well laid out and the staff is friendly. The operator of the campground keeps guests well-informed of upcoming activities, and available deals at the store. Best of all was the communication about pending bad weather. This gave ample time to secure items that could blow away and bring the aunings in.
